Due to my car audio system, the dealer did not want to replace battery under warranty As soon as they saw the system i knew they were gonna blame it on it.
theres a disclaimer on the windshield thats says that if you mess with the electronics of the car, it voids the warranty.
they wanted to charge an hour labor to see if the battery was defective, but i refuse to because i knew they were gonna blame it on the system. so i just paid the freaking $180 for the new battery. i have a feeling the battery was bad before i installed the system i hardly used the system and is always in low volume.
just to be on a safe side im gonna add a second battery to the system tomorrow with battery isolator.
